Original post
I am trying to send a request and a 401 response is returned all of a sudden! I am trying to use code that worked until a few months ago. I received my token at 21/3/2024 and worked just fine until July 2025 at least.

I checked the connection using the Github Page and I get this response: Connecting to: wss://app.hyperate.io/ws/LFFVGKR4?token=WfR1qayBvJNHWOzn5IrFqOTNQy7Mz1x9vuPlUd3jdMFSaQKv8K8OaXORhlflfl8t%E2%80%8B [error] {"isTrusted":true} [close] {"code":1006,"reason":"","wasClean":false} Can you help me understand the issue and what should I do? I can see values in my Hyperate app in Fitbit, but I cannot retrieve them.

Hello <@186881714381914112> , thank you for your effort! Unfortunately, I just tried it (via HypeRate-Websocket-API) and I get the same response: Connecting to: wss://app.hyperate.io/ws/LFFVGKR4?token=WfR1qayBvJNHWOzn5IrFqOTNQy7Mz1x9vuPlUd3jdMFSaQKv8K8OaXORhlflfl8t [error] {"isTrusted":true} [close] {"code":1006,"reason":"","wasClean":false} My code won't work as well, getting 401 error

Ah okay . found the issue. So it will take to 1 hour that your key is synced with the backend (automatic precess), but then it should work!

Unfortunately having some issues setting up connection to the API, 401 errors Also tried the websocket test, see screenshot (blocked out the API key for security), can anyone give me some hints on how to resolve this?
